2.14.8 Released!

Notice for Windows users: We are aware of an issue with the installer failing to download the dictionaries used for spellchecking. We are currently working on a fix and hope to have this resolved as soon as possible.

We’ve released another bug fix version of Pidgin, version 2.14.8. This release only has a few random bug fixes, but it does fix a regression that was causing some timestamp issues at least with the Discord plugin.

You can find links to the download from our Install page.
